"What might have been a forbidding chronological slog is thoroughly
enlivened by Conboy's thematic approach, shot through with passion
and rigour in equal measure. This is a book written with a
commitment to the importance of history for the present; it will
undeniably cultivate the same commitment in its readers." - Chris
Atton, Edinburgh Napier University "An authoritative and accessible
introduction to the history of journalism. Excellent resource for
undergraduates." - Philip Dixon, Southampton Solent University A
firm grasp of journalism's development and contribution to social
and political debates is a cornerstone of any media studies
education. This book teaches students that essential historical
literacy, providing a full overview of how changes in the
ownership, emphasis and technologies of journalism in Britain have
been motivated by social, economic and cultural shifts among
readerships and markets. Covering journalism's enduring questions -
political coverage, the influence of advertising, the
sensationalization of news coverage, the popular market and the
economic motives of the owners of newspapers - this book is a
comprehensive, articulate and rich account of how the mediascape of
modern Britain has been shaped.
